Sudmoll is part of the [[Government_of_Burgundie#Constituent_Countries|Burgoignesc Overseas Territory Assembly]]'s [[Geography_of_Burgundie#Sudmoll|Polar Burgundies]] geographic designation. [[Government_of_Burgundie#Constituent_Countries|Burgoignesc Overseas Territory Assembly]] is a constituent country equivalent of [[Burgundie]] with its own assembly, prime minister, budget, and laws. [[Burgundie]]'s national governmental influence is limited to subsidies, education, and security, however, its financial and cultural institutes cast a long shadow across Sudmoll.

Tourism is a significant industry.
 
The main trading partners are the [[Burgoignesc Metropole]] for about 40% of imports and about 25% of exports. The other main trading partners are [[Stenza]], [[Caphiria]], and [[Takatta Loa]].
 
Unemployment affects about 13% of the active population, especially women and unqualified young people.
 
===Tourism===
[[File:AncientTownOlvia.jpg|thumb|left|Unnamed Daxian ruin in western Sudmoll.]]
Sudmoll has, in recent years become known for {{wpl|whale watching}}: {{wpl|Humpback whale}}s come and reproduce here between July and October within easy sighting distance from the beaches.
 
The island's unspoiled nature in the form of its lush forests and numerous wildlife, its [[Daxia]]n and [[Loa]] ruins and various extravagant villas constructed on the island by rich [[Burgoigniacs]] have drawn visitors to the island since the 19th century, with various writers, poets and painters bringing the island to the public eye over the years.
===Criticism===
Permanent inhabitants of Sudmoll have spoken against the increased tourism in the recent decades due to the risk the expanded tourism industry might bring to the unspoiled nature of the island.
 
===Agriculture===
 
====Agrinergie====
[[File:Sheep_living_under_La_Ola_Solar_Farm_on_Lanai_Hawaii.jpg|right|250px]]
Main article: {{wpl|Agrivoltaics}}
 
Since [[2014]] Sudmoll has seen rise in the interest in {{wpl|agrivoltaics}}. There is a 1MW solar installation with agriculture activities on 2 hectares (5 acres) of land owned by a local cooperative that was funded by a grant from the Royal Academy of Sciences. The farm grows melons, chilies, and cucumbers which are sold at the local market. In [[2019]], an agrivoltaic system was built on a shrimp farm, funded by a local block grant. According to data collected by the Ministry of Energy's Department of Sustainability's Office of Energy Resiliency's Local Initiatives Branch, the results of their pilot project indicate that water consumption has been reduced by 75% and other benefits such as shading for workers as well as a lower and stable water temperature for better shrimp growth.
 
In [[2024]], a subsidy program was established for participants who can provide 1 hectare of undeveloped, arable, and viable land and a business plan to farm/ranch on the land with shade-tolerant crops can receive up to $150,000 towards the installation of a solar array.
 
===Aquaculture===
{{wpl|Aquaculture}} is a new aspect for the economy of Sudmoll. The commercialization of the pearl and nacre industry was first attempted in the 1990s and met with stiff resistance by the cottage industry that existed around it. The final push was in [[2014]] when conservation groups succeeded in getting the local legislature to put a 10-year moratorium on "wild" {{wpl|fishing}}, {{wpl|pearl-diving}}, and other forms of {{wpl|Gathering seafood by hand|gathering seafood by hand}}.
 
This was considered an [[Occidental world|Occidentalization]] of the cottage industries, concentrating power in hands of a few people who were friendly to the Governor-Epistates at the time. Two court cases have been brought against the law banning "wild" marine capture. In both cases the locals lost to overwhelming evidence that the new approach was much better for the environment and since the supply of aquaculture products was most consistent and forecastable much better for exporting concerns.
 
In the 2020s aquaculture exploded as the pristine {{wpl|marine coastal ecosystem}} attracted millions of dollars of investment from the [[Burgoignesc Metropole]] and the [[Levantine Union]]. The aquaculture sector employs about 250-300 people directly and brings in about $55-65 million a year not including ongoing investments.
 
====Mariculture====
[[File:Seaweed farming -Nusa Lembongan, Bali-16Aug2009 edit.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Raimana et Fils Inc. seaweed farm]]
{{wpl|Mariculture}} as a commercial effort is a growing business sector in Sudmoll. There are now two artificial reefs or sea ranches farming  {{wpl|Abalone|Paua}} farms that produce Paua flesh, pearls and nacre (mother of pearl). Other mollusks are farmed here and sold as a local food source.
 
There is a fish oil extraction and fishmeal production ship that processes all of the leftovers or unsellable fish and exports fish oil and fish meal. It circles the fish farms and collects it's load for an "offloading fee".
 
There is also a seaweed forest and an oyster farm both owned by Raimana et Fils Inc.
 
The sector generates around $18 million a year and employs about 50 people directly.
 
====Pisciculture====
{{wpl|Pisciculture}} in Sudmoll is focused mostly on the raising of {{wpl|Milkfish|Awa}}, {{wpl|Flatfish}}, {{wpl|Australasian snapper|tamure}}. {{wpl|offshore aquaculture|Open-ocean cage culture}} is the only allowable form of pisciculture in Sudmoll and theey produce about 3-400 tonnes of fish each year.
 
There are also two smaller fish farms that specialize in reef fish for aquariums and cleaner fish production.
 
The Pisciculture sector brings in about $35 million each year to the island and employs 173 people directly.

Port Nova Martillia is a small {{wpl|container port}} that can accommodate two {{wpl|Feeder ship|feeder sized ships}} at once. It is used to export the agricultural goods from the island but also to supply the locals with sustenance since the island is not self-sufficient. Since opening relations with [[Stenza]] the port has increased its activity almost twofold. Smaller packet freighters are a much more common sight. Almost all of the meager exports from Sudmoll now go to markets in [[Stenza]].
 
Trade is handled throught the [[Okatian Island Trading Company]] (OITC), a joint stock company that is owned 20% by [[Caphiria]], 20% by [[Burgundie]], 20% by [[O’Shea Container Shipping]], and the remaining shares are publically traded. The OITC handles the imports and exports from Sudmoll and [[Caphiria]]n [[Escal]]. It runs a regular route from [[Faramount|Port Lacomopoles]] in [[Burgundie]], [[Narico|Sybaesa Port]] in [[Caphiria]], [[Palestina Parish, Porta Bianca|Port Bianca]] in [[Cartadania]], [[Equitorial Osteiecia|Port TBD]], [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] [[Equitorial Osteiecia]], Ku'umata, [[Takatta Loa]],....tbd.

====Energy and electricity====
Sudmollians consume 41,499,420 kWh of electricity each year. Per capita, this is an average of 2,242 kWh.
Sudmollians consume 188,681,640 kgs of oil equivalent each year. Per capita, this is an average of 10,194 kgs of oil equivalent.
 
Sudmoll imports its petroleum and has no local refinery or production. Civilian daily consumption of imported oil products was 5,430 barrels in [[2025]], which constitutes 70% of energy generation for the island's inhabitants. A {{wpl|waste-to-energy plant}} was constructed in [[2003]] and provides the remaining 30% of power generation. It also consumes about 83% of the waste generated on the island. The {{wpl|syngas}} byproduct is increasingly becoming one of Sudmoll's most valuable exports.
There is a rising interest in {{Sudmoll#Agrinergie|Agrinergie]] but a study found that the total potential of the island could only offset the need to meet the current energy consumption, which will never be realized. There has been a mild interest, in residential and commercial solar energy but there isn't a financial capability by the vast majority of residents and businesses to make the initial investments even with current government subsidies. It is estimated that the total solar energy generation capacity on the island is about 4KWs and there is no expectation of that drastically increasing in the next 3-5 yrs.
 
Through an infrastructure investment grant, the [[Levantine Union]] has committed ₮8 million to construct tidal power generators, but the project is currently stalled by local fishermen who are concerned about the disturbances the generators will cause to their livelihood. The project is still expected to move forward and the projected completion date is [[2029]]. A feasibility study was conducted and determined that solar would be unreliable due to the long monsoon seasons, and nuclear was too expensive for the demand.
 
====Military installations====
Sudmoll is home to two military bases, [[Sudmoll#Fort St. Amaund|Fort St. Amaund]], jointly operated by [[Navy of Burgundie]] and the [[Revenue Guard]], and [[Sudmoll#Fort St. Giles|Fort St. Giles]], operated by the [[Army of Burgundie#Foreign Legion|Foreign Legion]].

Unemployment affects about 13% of the active population, especially women and unqualified young people.
===Standard of living===
===Employment===
Because Sudmoll's economy is a high-low mix of sectors from research to traditional fishing and herding, opportunities abound for Iti at all skill and education levels, which has helped the islands maintain a fairly steady unemployment rate of around X% for the last decade.
[[Burgundie]]'s high emphasis on [[Culture_in_Burgundie#Education|education]] translates to a particularly educated and skilled workforce, leading to lower unemployment compared to less educated countries in [[Australis]]. The islands' economic diversity cushions against overreliance on any single industry, which has demonstrably made the island more resilient during downturns. Since [[Burgundie]] strives for [[Total Economic Engagement]] and espouses equal rights and opportunities regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, ability, or background, Sudmolls benefits from improved access to education and training, impacting employment prospects across various fields.

{{Further|Thračician#Tehoe}}
Tehoe (Æng. The bond, or the covenant) are a [[Thračician]]-Polynesian creole culture. The [[Thračicians]] served in the fleets of the [[Duchy of Bourgondi]] for much of the 17th-19th centuries and were rewarded for their service with small [[Patroon]]ships in Sudmoll. These Thračician [[patroon]]s begat with the local Polynesian women of the island and by the 1780s there was a strong Tehoe culture emerging. Because of the nature of their work, the men were often away at sea so they were not present to impart many of their [[Thračician]] customs and traditions, but some did persist. The singing of {{wp|Bećarac}} is immensely popular in both the native [[Thračician]] language and also those translated or written in the [[Burgoignesc language]].
